Description
In a nutshell:
A sumptuous Rioja Reserva from a noted producer.
The lowdown:
Made with grapes from old low yielding bush vines aimed to obtain fruit with a real richness and depth. This wine has been aged for 16 months in French oak, 50% new, and has had 20 months cellaring in bottle. The colour is an almost Burgundian red, but the nose has intense red cherry aromas with a subtle spiciness. On the palate it's smooth with freshness to the ripe cherry flavours, elegant spices, and fresh, ripe tannins.
The Producer:
Founded in 1987 by Mario Rotllant and Carmen Daurella, Bodegas Roda is part of the new generation of Rioja producers reshaping the region's wine styles. Moving away from traditional oak-influenced wines, their focus is on crafting deep, complex wines that appeal to modern tastes. They take a meticulous approach to both viticulture and winemaking, which shines through in their reliably expressive and refined wines. Bodegas Roda has carved out a niche for itself with wines that balance tradition and innovation, offering a fresh perspective on what Rioja can be.
When to drink:
Complex, smooth and very rewarding, it would suit roast game down to a tee.
